It is quite possible that I am paranoid...but when I scroll down to the bottom of the page to see who is online I see all of these "guests" 8O All of these people who can read what I have to say without ever saying a word, seems kind of like a stalker 8O ... (by manda)

When opening the forum front page, after logging in, all unread threads have a star on the left.... If one wants to read it, click on the star and it will take you to the last post before you logged off the last time.... If you have no interest in a... (by DaSleeper)

If a thread has more than one page I cannot get to the next page. I can see at the bottom of the thread the little boxes with 1 or 2 and this >. When I place my cursor there it goes Kabloohey. Just all jiggly and shaky . At times I can see for a... (by Count_Lothian)

Yes, I know, what a delicate flower, but honest to goodness what I want more than anything on this forum right now is the ability to put a thread on ignore. I wish I could describe the visceral reaction, the bile rising, the hands shaking, the tears... (by karrie)

A FAQ is needed for CC. Many questions one sort of stumbles their way to, lots of them here for instance. Difficult for newbies to find answers in the threads here though. A specific definition re: 'when is a moderator not a moderator?' is very much... (by Bcool)

... when I try to access this site today. And sometimes its just for an icon or two, other times the whole page gives me a DNS error. This site only. Is there an issue and is anybody else experiencing this? (by IdRatherBeSkiing)

Normally in my browser I type "can..." which auto-fills to "canadiancontent.net" to get to these forums..... um... but just a few seconds ago and even right now as I type this, I am redirected to this: Hello, My Name Is Pabst Some site about babies... (by Praxius)

Hello folks! I'm running some updates on the forums server today and we might experience some short periods of downtime at some points throughout the day. So if you are writing long posts, I suggest you copy them into Notepad before you hit the post... (by Andem)

I took the day off to play video games and have been at it for around 6 hours. It appears that when I started playing Terraria, the site went down and my phone was on silent (alas, no alerts could be heard!) Anyways, we're back up now. Sorry for the... (by Andem)

Is there a place on CC that keeps track of the total ups and downs for members and is it possible to see the scores of other members? Currently I can see my own ups and downs but there is no running total. (by Walter)

I've been working all day on algorithms and hardcore coding and decided to switch my efforts over to some design changes on the forums. I've been wanting to do it for a while, but I've lightened up thread pages and postbits. Anyone else notice? Comments? (by Andem)

I'm going to have to schedule a time to bring the server down for a couple of hours this week (maybe today) because we have some faulty RAM. I'll keep this thread updated. Update: Server will go down for a time between 4pm - 7pm EDT (by Andem)

There's been a security flaw discovered in the main javascript framework which this site is built on (YUI). There have been no reports of anybody using this exploit to cause damage yet, but to be safe, I've upgraded the framework which in CC's case, was... (by Andem)

Woohoo! I've been working on ways to make these forums faster by doing many things like: Cleaning up, rewriting and combining JavaScript files (the features that make using the site easy) Removing the need to refresh the page everytime someone wants... (by Andem)

I've had a couple of reviews from various people after I relaunched the homepage and various people mentioned that it doesn't look Canadian enough. One even said it looked like "the conservative colours". Hrmpf. I added a Canadian flag to the top menubar,... (by Andem)

Since I've completely revamped the home page, I've also put a lot of work into organizing articles submitted by members which cover a lot of different topics. The great thing about the forums is we can discuss opinions openly and talk about what's going... (by Andem)

If nobody noticed, I posted a request to members asking them to become a fan of CC on facebook. I don't expect everyone to join in, but its there now! The page will be especially helpful if there's any downtime on here and/or you want to keep up with any... (by Andem)

I've made some slight changes to the way threads are displayed. From now on, active threads (the ones that have been active within the past hour) are now live! That means that new replies will automatically appear after the last post on the page without... (by Andem)

With the addition of the new sub-forums in the Science & Environment Forum, we are announcing two new Forum Leaders to take care of them. You may notice that the forums and their new leaders are extremely well suited - aren't we lucky to have so many... (by Zan)

I was just wondering how to see my post ratings. I, of course, see them when I get an alert of a new one but I can't seem to find them later when I want to revisit them and revel in the glory of the 'good' ones and whine and cry to myself about the bad.... (by eh1eh)

1. When do I get mailbox access? I want to PM an admin? 2. When can I change my member title? 3. One of my posts went to moderation this morning and I don't see it yet. It's either slow moderation or the post was disallowed. I asked about opinions... (by MapleOne)

I've noticed since the Newsbot came back to life that it seems to only focus on a couple of news reports.... say two in particular (The UN Security Council thing & the Miners in Chile) I know it's just blindly doing its job, but isn't there a way to... (by Praxius)

Most of you have probably already heard that I had a group of beta testers testing out some new stuff and a lot of you were wondering what rated posts were. Well I've decided today to make this version live and switch everybody over. I'm pretty tired... (by Andem)

How does one delete a post moved into a thread I do not wish to be part of? The now post, which had been a new thread, is now in the thread: Another Tamil ship on its way to our shores. It's heading: Author Goran Simic watches the news of the... (by Bcool)

Hope I'm in the correct forum? If not, please move this to the appropriate forum, thank you. Ok, I've tried linking to the image file on an image storeage site - won't work. Copy & pasting it into a post does not appear to be possible, not... (by Bcool)
